Watch Like a Boss with Globe Streamwatch Roku Powered

Recently, we had a lot of long holidays declared due to the ASEAN Summit held in the Philippines. We just had a staycation at home due to the horrendous traffic caused by the dedicated ASEAN lanes for delegates. Mickey and I watched a movie marathon on cable TV, but there were times that we ran out of good programs to watch, and we wished there were more channel options.

Last week, our wish was granted when we received a box from Globe at Home at Casa Villa! Inside it is a comfy blanket, a pillow, a mug to put our drinks in, microwaveable popcorn to munch on while watching our favorite shows, a flashlight for when we watch scary movies and the most important thing inside the box (and probably one of the best gifts to receive this Christmas) is the Roku powered streaming stick, which allows Globe Streamwatch users to watch a variety of content across 100+ free channels in different categories including sports, lifestyle, travel and more. You know what this means? We can now Watch Like a Boss in the comforts of our own home and at our own time on our HD ready TV.

Globe Streamwatch Roku Powered is a portable streaming stick, which allows consumers to use it on different TVs in your home, in a friend's home or even at a hotel. It comes with a simple remote control with dedicated buttons for Netflix, Disney Channel Apps, You Tube and HOOQ. From the channel store, users can choose from an additional 100 streaming channels to add to their personalized home screen. Customers can also download the Streamwatch app for free on Google Playstore and App Store to convert their mobile phones to a remote.

The Globe Streamwatch Roku powered device is exclusively available through Globe at Home broadband plans.

For new Broadband subscribers, here are the plan choices (these plans also come with a three-month access to top streaming services such as Netflix, Disney Channel Apps and HOOQ):
- Broadband Plan 1299/month

"Streaming has revolutionized the way people consume TV series and movies. Today, primetime is whenever people want to watch content. Through our collaboration with Roku and the launch of Globe Streamwatch Roku Powered, our customers now watch 1M+ of videos, movies and TV shoes from our global partners like You Tube, Disney Channel Apps, HOOQ and Netflix. Easy to use and activate, Globe Streamwatch Roku Powered gives you access to a wealth of entertainment at home even without a cable connection," says Globe at Home Senior Vice President, Martha Sazon.
